[MLB-WIRELESS] The Age Technology article

[evilbunny]

Hello Barry,

the standard for 11g is 20mbps or greater, extensions to the standard
increase this, how well is yet to be seen, and they don't need line of
sight for short distances, I've seen blue tooth operate without it...
and well i deff don't have LOS to my ap sitting inside when the
antenna is outside...
